The Perfect Fan

It's not everyday that I tell her how much she means to me. I could simply say that or send a text away, no sweat. But now that I'm all grown up, sometimes I feel awkward to let her know how I feel.  Not today though. Because today, on the occasion of her special day, I am announcing to the whole wide world that my mama is the reason where I am right now. I love her so dearly. And I honestly dunno how to live without her.


Yes, yes, we had our tough moments. We have issues about each other.  But no matter what, she's always there giving her best for me, for us with my siblings. She's sacrificed a lot. But never did she turn her back on us despite our stubbornness and neglectfulness at times. (okay, most of the time).   So here's the lyrics of the song I dedicate to her. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it cause it best describes my mama.


It takes a lot to know what is love
It's not the big thing but the little things
That can mean enough
A lot of players to get me through
And there is never a day that passes by
I don't think of you
You were always there for me
Pushing me and guiding me
Always to succeed


You showed me
When i was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that i should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan


God has been so good
Blessing me with the family
Who did all they could
And I've had many years of Grace
And it flatters me when i see a smile on your face
I wanna thank you for what you've done
In hopes I can give back to you
And be the perfect son


You showed me
When i was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that i should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan


You showed me how to love
You showed me how to care
You showed me that you would always be there
I wanna thank you for the time
And i'm proud to say you're mine


You showed me
When i was young just how to grow
You showed me everything that i should know
You showed me just how to walk without your hands
'Cause mom you always were the perfect fan


'Cause Mom you always were, Mom you always were
Mom you always were...You know you always were

'Cause Mom you always were the perfect fan


I Love You Mom!



I guess I was three when this was taken.


Happy birthday, Ma. I love you!
